311km/h = 86.389 m/s 
<span>Initial KE </span>
<span>= 0.5 * 210 * 86.389^2 J </span>

<span>work done by force of ground </span>
<span>= F * 0.81 J </span>

<span>0.5 * 210 * 86.389^2 = 0.81 F </span>

<span>F = 967433.58 N </span>

<span>capsule's weight W= 210 * 9.81 = 2060.1 N </span>

<span>F = 469.6 times capsule weight ---answer</span>

A textbook search committee is considering

Number of ways to select 3 books from 13 books for adoption is 286 .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

A Permutation is an ordered Combination. When the order does matter it is a Permutation. There are basically two types of permutation:

  • Repetition is Allowed: such as the lock above. It could be "333".
  • No Repetition: for example the first three people in a running race. You can't be first and second.

Formula is given by:

nC_r= \frac{n!}{r! (n-r)!} , where n is the number of things to choose from,  and we choose r of them,  no repetitions,  order matters. Here , n=13 , r=3.

⇒ 13C_3 = \frac{13!}{3!(13-3)!}

⇒ 13C_3 = \frac{13!}{3!(10)!}

⇒ 13C_3 = \frac{13(12)(11)10!}{3(2)(1)(10)!}

⇒ 13C_3 = 13(2)(11)

⇒ 13 C_3 = 286

∴ Number of ways to select 3 books from 13 books for adoption is 286 .
